That was better than the Spurs game

This Nets game tells me so much about the pacers mental toughness. Coming off a huge game last night and off a bad first half, they get back into but then fall down again by 11 going into the 4th, I thought the game was over. But for the Pacers gut the win out was so telling.

This game was all about mental toughness.

I give Tinsley a lot of credit, he defended Kidd better than he ever has.

Pacers offense was not pretty, they had trouble getting decent shots, but somehow they won the game. (That is the exact discription of most playoff games.

Re: That was better than the Spurs game

Actually this was a fair game by Bavetta. Well as fair as he gets anyway. At lease he didnt foul Jermaine out

One call stands out in my mind. Pacers fast break and Kidd slams Tinsley to keep him from making the layup. Bavetta's the lead official on the baseline, right there staring right at it, and lets it go. Donahay's back at halfcourt and has to make the call.

I swear, if I ever come across that man in real life...well, let me just say I'd appreciate it if you guys would start a fund to pay for my bail. It won't be cheap, after I finish with him.

I'll help bail you out. If I'm not locked up with you, for kicking the bald headed ******* while you have him down.

Re: That was better than the Spurs game

I just love it when ESPN runs a headline "Pacers Defense Suffocates Nets"

The poster "pacertom" since this forum began (and before!). I changed my name here to "Slick Pinkham" in honor of the imaginary player That Bobby "Slick" Leonard picked late in the 1971 ABA draft (true story!).
I'm (maybe) back after being repetedly banned, merely for supporting a different NFL team than do certain forum moderators.

I about freaked at the Rodney Rogers takedown of AL Harrington. Casual foul my arse...flagrant if ever! Much of the action taking place AFTER the whistle was blown. I'm betting that if it had been Artest, Martin's near swing would have earned Ron an ejection as a "threatening move".
(I'm also betting Bevetta has a permanent woodie over what Isaiah is doing with the Knicks right now)

If you get to thinkin’ you’re a person of some influence, try orderin’ somebody else’s dog around..

Works for me. So long as you help bail me out after I pay a visit to Steve Javie.

Re: That was better than the Spurs game

Most impressive thing I saw was Jermaine staying in the game in the 4th. He showed that he can control himself and still play great in foul trouble.

The 5th foul was great for the pacers, after that it seemed like all the nets were worried about was getting JO fouled out. That caused a lot of missed open shots by the nets, including two missed layups by Kidd.
